Parent Council Fall Fundraising
As we welcome children back to a modified learning environment, we recognize that fundraising will look different this year, even though the needs we fund remain. In 2020/2021 we would like to be able to provide a Scientists in the School program for every single class at St. Joseph School - but we can only do that with your help.

Monitoring and Managing Covid
Parents/guardians - Please screen your children for COVID-19 every day before leaving for school.
